That's part of the fun isn't it.

Clean and wax fronty.....

Take Fronty off road.....

Get Fronty stuck......

Sulk while everyone takes piccies of stuck Fronty....

Take Fronty home...

Wait for pictures to appear on FOG or post own

Then spend the whole day making Fronty clean again...

Repeat as often as possible..
